In productivity its a mixed bag, in heavy single thread applications like CAD and Adobe, the 12900k still comes out ahead on performance and efficiency, but in rendering it comes out behind in efficiency.

This only applies to the 12900k. The 12700k, 12600k, 12400, etc all are as efficient as Zen 3 across the board in productivity, while providing more performance while using less power in gaming. Its only the 12900k that it pushed hard at stock settings.
And the 5950x is $650, so unless you have an insanely high power cost, the 12900k is still the better deal at $499.
Just bringing the perspective.
